Rat Daniels by Alex Sawyer Laura Wood One destiny…

One destiny…

They’ll be the ones to break them

experiencing their joy and pain firsthand

He doesn’t ask for help—and definitely doesn’t know what to do when I show up with chore charts

they tell a tale of getting away with murder for over 50 years

Rat Daniels by Alex Sawyer Laura Wood One destiny…An unforgettable coming of age story from a stunning new voice in Australian fiction, for those who love Mark Brandi, Favel Parrett and Tim Winton. I was six, turning seven, and all I really remember is the loneliness, and the lumpy feeling that I was somehow doing everything wrong. And then I met Rat. Jimmy Quinn is only a boy when he meets Rat Daniels down by the creek. Until that moment, Rat wasn't called Rat, and Jimmy didn't have a best friend.
